Chapter 73: Sealed



The Healer's Path has leveled up.

As Rain approached the stone wall, he carefully inspected its surface, making sure not to disturb it too much. It was an ancient structure and surprisingly well-preserved despite its age. The craftsmanship indicated that it had been built by skilled hands, and its purpose as an escape route became evident to him.

The idea that Leo might have planned to use these hidden passages for ambushes crossed Rain's mind. It was a plausible strategy, and if that were the case, he needed to proceed cautiously. He couldn't risk alerting anyone on the other side or drawing attention to himself.

With his heart pounding, Rain deliberated on the best course of action. If he wanted to proceed without raising suspicions, he would have to be meticulous in his approach. His earth magic might be efficient, but it could still cause disturbances if used carelessly.

Rain decided to take a moment to assess the situation fully. He stepped back and found a concealed spot where he could rest and think. He needed to consider every angle and make a plan before proceeding any further.

"Let's observe for a day and see if anyone is coming and going through here," Rain thought.

As Rain carefully continued his excavation, he couldn't help but be impressed by the craftsmanship of the hidden escape route. The tunnel was well-constructed, and it had clearly been designed with secrecy and discretion in mind. It seemed that those who had built it were experts in their craft, leaving no trace of its existence on the other side.

As the hours passed, Rain worked diligently, making sure to keep the noise to a minimum while still progressing steadily. He wanted to create a hole that would be difficult to detect, ensuring that his entry into the city would go unnoticed.

His heightened senses remained on high alert, constantly scanning for any signs of movement or sound from both inside the tunnel and outside. He couldn't afford to be caught off guard, especially if any scouts or spies were nearby.

Rain's mind was a whirlwind of thoughts and calculations as he meticulously dug around the bricks of the wall. He was determined to make a hole that was seamless and undetectable. It was a tedious process, but he knew it was necessary to avoid any potential dangers.

Despite his focus and determination, Rain couldn't shake the feeling of urgency gnawing at him. He knew he had limited supplies and couldn't afford to linger for too long. The longer he stayed in the area, the greater the risk of being discovered.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity, Rain completed his task. He had managed to create a hole that blended almost flawlessly with the rest of the wall. It would be nearly impossible to notice any disturbance in the bricks to an untrained eye.

Satisfied with his work, Rain took a moment to catch his breath and wipe the sweat from his brow. He felt a mix of relief and excitement, knowing that his escape route was ready. It was time to make his move.

"Open, Sesame," Rain thought, and he used his magic to move the wall of bricks like it was a door.

As Rain stepped through the hole he had carefully crafted, his earth magic allowed the brick wall to open up like a secret door, sliding silently to the side. He couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude for his diligent practice of earth magic. Without it, he wouldn't have been able to create such a discreet entrance.

Entering the tunnel, he was immediately enveloped by darkness. He closed the hidden door behind him, ensuring that no one would stumble upon his secret escape route. The darkness was almost suffocating, and Rain had to rely on his heightened senses to navigate through the narrow passageway.

As he moved further into the tunnel, he noticed that it was dusty and covered in cobwebs. The lack of footprints and any signs of recent use confirmed that it had indeed been abandoned for years. The air was stale, and the faint scent of dampness hung in the air.

"Maybe he isn't planning to use the tunnels at all," Rain thought. "I can't hear the sound of anything around, but I need to be cautious… First, let's check the exit."

As Rain continued his journey through the dark and dusty tunnel, he resisted the urge to use his earth magic to levitate and conserve his precious mana. He knew that every ounce of magic he saved could make a difference in the days to come. So, with determination in his heart, he pressed forward on foot, navigating the darkness without creating any light to guide his way.

Despite the darkness and the eerie silence, Rain moved with confidence, trusting his instincts and his sense of direction. He counted the steps in his mind, estimating the distance he had covered and the distance he had left to go. His body ached from the long journey, but he pushed on, motivated by the thought of rescuing his father.

As he ventured deeper into the tunnel, the air grew colder, and the dampness seeped into his clothes. The dust clung to his skin, making him feel gritty and uncomfortable. But Rain paid no heed to his discomfort, his focus solely on reaching the tunnel's exit.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity of walking in the dark, Rain saw the end of the tunnel, But as he drew closer, he calmed down. The exit had been blocked by a massive pile of dirt and debris, sealing off any passage to the outside.
